嶺二のひざし ☆

𑣲⋆ ── F/O watching you do the most mundane tasks with the fondest smile on their face and then patting your head with the softest chuckle ever.

Imagine

You've been sick for a few days with something not that isn't too bad, but it's bad enough that it keeps you in bed. You'd be in bed anyways since you're still contagious, but it still irritates you since you have a lot of things you'd rather be doing than laying in bed all day.

Your F/O understands your frustration and how badly you feel so they take it upon themselves to take care of you, disregarding their own health. They know they could get sick, but despite that knowledge (and your protests), they stick by your side.

They bring you soup and hot drinks and tissues and water and other fluids. They remind to drink electrolytes and keep warm but to also tell them if you begin to get too warm.

They bring you books and crafts and games, they even do those things with you if you want them to. They shower you with affection when you want it, and leave you alone when you ask them to.

Even while you're contagious, your F/O insists that they don't care if they get sick too. They still cuddle and hug and kiss you. They still sleep next to you and take care of you even when they begin to cough and sneeze themself.

Eventually you begin to recover fully, but not before they've fully contracted your illness. But they have you, so you take care of them too.

if you like fireworks, imagine watching the fireworks with your f/o. bonus points if they've never seen a fourth of July celebration before, for whatever reason! imagine taking them to a good ol' fashioned all American bonfire/cookout, watching fire fireworks light up the sky as you sit on them shitty folding chairs or a blanket on the slightly damp grass.

S/I: Do you mean thanks?

F/O: This is the darkest hour.

you don't have to engage with the entire community. you don't owe anyone a thing. you don't have to follow anyone back, or even to keep them in your followers list.

you can be lowkey and have fun. you can block tags and people. you can go back when you make mistakes. you're not stuck. screw numbers. screw followers count. screw likes. screw people who make you feel uncomfortable. that's not what you're here for, is it?

hang out with your friends. post your art and the commissions you get. self reblog the fuck out of what you're proud of. love your beloveds. make your own tiny community. it's okay.

you'll be okay.

By the way, here's the F/O template I used for my promo post. I actually made it myself since I wasn't satisfied with similar ones I've seen
